I don’t even know what to charge for aligners.


If you’re unsure about pricing… you’ll always undercharge.

I did that for months.

I priced low because I was scared to lose the case.

But that just led to resentment — more work, less profit, no sustainability.

Then I switched to a model that made sense — for me and the patient.

Here’s how I price aligners now:

  • Take your lab fee (let’s say $1,200–$1,800)
  • Multiply it by 3x for your total fee — that builds in profit, chairtime, and refinements
  • Script the value confidently: “This is designed to minimize refinements and get you results faster. If we don't correct this problem now - it will cost you 5x in the future to fix.”

It’s not about being the cheapest.

It’s about being confident, clear, and consistent.

We breakdown pricing and how to frame the value to patients inside our Aligner Blueprint course. If you feel ready to take the first step to more confidence with aligners - check it out.

Social media makes it feel like every dentist is doing 10+ aligner cases a month. And if you haven’t started… it feels like you’ve missed the boat. I felt that too. I waited longer than I should’ve — and beat myself up about it. But once I got the right support, I made up for lost time fast. If that’s where you’re at, here’s what I’d focus on first: Pick 1 case you feel good about and commit to starting it this month Block time to learn: 30 minutes/week on just case selection + planning Stop...

You’re losing money by paying your associates to do Clear Aligners.I see a lot of practices making this mistake.Here’s why it’s costing you—and how to fix it. 👇🏽When I first saw a practice using the Production Frontload model for paying associates, it seemed logical:• Associate starts the case, earns 30% of production.• Lab bill? Deducted at 30%.• Paid out just like restorative work.Sounds simple, right?It works beautifully when patients pay in full upfront.But let’s be real—most patients...
